Ok I just want to start out this blog by saying I think Arnald Friend is gross....we talked about in class he was attracted to young 15 year old girls because they are goingthrough puberty. I know there are people out there like that and it makes me not want to have any girls someday. I think also older men who are attrated to young girls know that young girls are in that stage where "sex is apparently the cool thing to do." Also after reading that interview by the author it totally makes sense that Arnaold is all those things....death, the devil, your imagination, a serial killer. Im just not a very imaginitive person so I dont really think about those things as I read a story. Ok so now I want to talk about my dream I had. I dont often remember my dreams but when I have really wierd dreams I call up my friend and tell her about them so then I remember the really wierd ones. Alright so me, my sister, my friend Katie, and this hot guy (not gunna say the name cause someone in the class might know him), are all hanging out in this tiny living room. My sister is behind the couch just sitting there making wierd noises and not talking to any of us, Im laying on the couch getting ready to go to bed, and Katie and mr. hottie are on the floor sitting next to the couch. So a big clump of fur just floated by us and we were all freaking out cause a ball of hair is just gross. Then mr. hottie says "oh guys dont worry, thats just my hair." Then I fall asleep on the couch and while im laying there sleeping mr. hottie and katie grab my memory card out of my phone and go outside to hide it under a big ball of snow. They were giggling and acting like it was the greatest thing they have ever done. Then I woke up from that lovely dream. I have no idea why I dreamt that because I watched the notebook before I went to bed and I hate hair balls, they freak me out. So dreams are interesting. I feel like the stuff that happened in my dreams actually happened in real life, my life would be way cool and a lot more interesting!

The lovely interpretation of the book/movie!

So first of all I have to say that the man in the movie was just as I pictured him in the book....a total creeper! If I were that girl I would have done the traditional Montana thing.....grab my gun!!!! Anywho, When I first read the book I thought that he actually took her away because the book ended on a note where she went to a place she has never seen before. Then in the movie I felt like the whole thing was just her imagination because she was talking to her sister and told her the story but then said it never happened. I know thats not that exciting and not near exciting as the kid in class. Im one of those old times people who likes to think two people are in love when they give up their virginity so I didnt even think about that happening. I know it happens all the time but it didnt even cross my mind. I liked the book better because I dont like watching those wierd situations happen, I would rather read them. Also I felt a lot more intenseness as I read the book! Overall I got a creepy feeling from both the movie and book and its something I think every girl dreads of happening.

Poems?

So the reason my title is called poems? is because I dont understand poems very well. As I read in just- it brought me back to my good ol childhood. I remember playing in the mud puddles and jumping rope. I did however feel like the poem had negative connotations, for example at the end when it talks about the goat-footed man. To me it sounds like the devil trying to take the children away from their innocence. Nothing scares me more than the devil and just reading that poem kinda gave me bad feelings. The devil tempts people into doing wrong every single day and I know as a child it was so easy getting talked into things even though you know its wrong. In the story though I feel like they made the devil out to be a good person handing out fun balloons to the children, or maybe the balloons were a metaphor for sin....gosh see, I just dont know how to read poems. I guess it does bring out your imagination though. Now I found Emily Dickenson's poem a little more enjoyable. What I got out of it was that death found someone and they pasted by their lives going towards their new lives in eternity. Even though death isn't such a cherished word, eternity is. Well to me it is. I feel like death is just a word that leads to eternity. Im not scared to die because I believe that I am going to live a much, much better life for all eternity. This poem just gave me a good feeling even though its about death. I know I'm not great at reading poems but this is just what I got from these poems, you can take it or leave it.

Flipping through the book of random stories!

So as I was flipping through the book I stopped at the story called the "The lady with the pet dog". The reason why it popped out to me because i have a pet dog that means the world to me. If there was a story about me, that would proly be the title. All my friends call me "the crazy dog lady" haha. Ok so it all started out one xmas my bunny died and i was so so sad. My moms friend's golden retreiver had puppies and i wanted one so bad. My mom and dad told me NO! But when xmas came around I opened a present full of a dog bed, puppy food, and puppy toys!!! It was the happiest day of my life. So now she is 6 years old and me and Zoey(my dog) are the best of friends. Now you know why my friends call me the crazy dog lady, and why my title would be "The lady with the pet dog." I have not read the story yet but the title stuck out to me, im not sure I want to read it cause the story might ruin the title!

Book, books, books

So today we were all discussing how all books are interesting. I dont know if i agree with that all the way. I think each person has a specific taste in the kinda book they like to read. Iv never met anyone who finds every single book they read interesting. I mean ya every book out there is interesting.......to certain people. I must be a very non intersesting person cause I find alot of books boring and find my self asleep drooling on the book. Reading is just something that I have to be told to do, like an assignment, I do NOT read for fun. I personally like doing outdoor activites or some thing full of adventure rather than reading about adventure. The only book I read on my own time is the Bible and thats cause its something that evolves around my life, but alot of books i feel like after I read Im like wow that was so boring. Im sorry to all the reading lovers but I find alot of books boring. I know there is so many different books out there and I really do wish that I loved to read! Someone should help me out and give me some reasons on why I should read instead of a fun-filled day at bridger?

EZZZZ dropping on people

So the teacher said to just listen to what people talk about and I did just that. So when I was in life span and sitting behind two girls and they were talking about sex :( gross. To be honest I thought it was more likly to hear boys talking about sex, but these girls were talking in a deep conversation about sex. well I never want to ezdrop anymore!

English stories

The first story i read was "where are you going, where have you been." I guess I was a little disturbed by the man in this story. I know everyone uses the word "creepy" but he so was that. I think its more scary for girls to read cause thats a girls worst nightmeres, at least its my worst nightmere. I started getting nurvous for the girl when she heard a car drive up, and after that it just kept getting more tense as I read on. I didnt really know what to think of the ending, I guess I was kind of confused about what happened and I hate not knowing whats going to happen cause then I cant stop thinking about it. Then I read "the pied piper of tucson" and it scared me too, I proly shouldnt read these before i go to bed. It made me never want to visit Tucson. This guy was sick and there are people just like him out there in this world. I just dont understand why things like this happen. All I know is I hope not all the stories are like these two!
